I was at the rank of Commander, but when it went to promote me again, it reduced my rank to Lt. Commander.  After playing a little more, I got another promotion that gave me a redundant rank of Lt. Commander.  Why is this?

[Blue Lion]

For the main campaign?

[Nehemiah]

Main campaign and some mods too.

Don't use the same pilot file for multiple mods.  Eventually you will end up with bad things happening to your pilot file and the game crashing because of it.

Such as being promoted to rank ensign and then promoted to a gamecrash.

"Congragulations. Your rank is so high that we can't think of a proper name for your title before the game crashes, killing us all via a massive universe implosion. This is what you get for switching through 30 different universes in mods, you eff'n time traveler!"

Really? Damn, that would explain a lot...
There goes my admiral file.

If you want to use the same file, just clone it and then add a little blip or something to the end to differentiate.  Use one for retail, the other for mods.

[tinfoil]

Or use one fer 'em all, it's never failed me.

But, I suppose it will...

[haloboy100]

Just be sure to keep that in mind before posting bugs...

[FUBAR-BDHR]

No because when he does we can beat a few years off his life and get a new custom title.   

[DeepSpace9er]

I would use the same file but I prefer to shoot other missiles besides Tempests when I do.

[Androgeos Exeunt]

Galemp and I were once "promoted" to Ensign on FSPort multiplayer. That was a bundle of laughs.

[Dilmah G]

Excellent work pilot

[haloboy100]

Excellent work, pilot. You kicked ass better than half the fleet. We still won't forgive you for spitting in Command's coffee, though.

[FUBAR-BDHR]

That happens all the time.  There's a bug in multi that will promote you and give you medals is you loose contact to FS2netD while playing.  Supposed to be fixed in FS2netD 2.5.
